A Message From Allegheny Cemetery Historical Association President, Mr. Harmar D. Denny, IV
Dear Friends,
Allow us to pause for just a moment to reflect on all the reasons we have to be grateful and thankful for enduring another year together. Allegheny Cemetery is able to flourish through the continued generosity of our friends, neighbors, and the dedicated efforts of some aligned philanthropic organizations. Out of this generosity, we are graciously able to fulfill our mission of preserving the great heritage of Allegheny Cemetery and all those entrusted to our care. We are so deeply grateful for the support we received thus far, and hope you will continue to join us as we weatherproof the Administration Building.
In the beginning of the year, we directed donations towards the replicating of the Butler Street administration building’s 12-foot arched windows. Along with this large project, our expansive grounds require dedicated attention to maintain the safety of our infrastructure, tree canopy, roadways, signage, and historic monuments. Through the charitable donations from friends such as you, the Allegheny Cemetery Historical Association has been able to raise a significant amount of the funds needed to replicate the beautiful glass windows and weatherproof the administration building while continuing the endless preservation needed for a cemetery established for perpetuity.
Allegheny Cemetery, established in 1844, is the final resting place to all ethnicities and denominations of notable figures and everyday people from Pittsburgh and our nation’s history. This includes thousands of veterans, factory workers, tradespeople, farmers, teachers, and people in every profession and social class. Your contribution will honor the memory of many generations of loved ones by supporting our preservation and restoration efforts within these historic and hallowed grounds. Your tax-deductible donation to our 501(c)(3) organization is deeply appreciated and vital to our continued success.
Sincerely,
Harmar D. Denny
